The Dream
The Dream Coffee is community-powered coffee.
Since 2017, we have been partnering with indigenous Tboli farmers who live in the densely-forested, volcanic-soil rich municipalities of T’Boli and Lake Sebu in South Cotabato. We produce green and roasted specialty arabica and fine robusta.

The Dream Coffee honors the Tboli tribe who have a tradition of weaving a sacred fabric called T’Nalak that’s inspired by dreams.
Our collective dream is to positively impact the lives of farmers and their families through high-value and high-quality coffee. As of the 2023/2024 harvest season, we are working with 50 partners from Barangays T’Bolok and Salacafe in T’Boli, and Barangays Klubi and Lamdalag in Lake Sebu.Â

The Dream Coffee is committed to creating tangible impact.
We focus our production and processing on specialty-grade Philippine arabica and robusta. Our coffee is handpicked and harvested ripe, and processed in our central mill in T'Boli. Roasted coffees are produced in small batches and go through quality checks by a licensed Q Arabica Grader.
